Research misconduct can have a negative impact on researchers and research institutions. It is essential that research and oversight professionals understand how to recognize and report misconduct, and be aware of what investigations by various regulatory agencies can entail. This webinar will help regulatory professionals who work in both human subjects protections and animal care and use understand their role in the context of research misconduct.
